TO CHANGE TEMPERATURE SETTING:
Press or hold either Left (<) or Right (>) Temp/Timer
buttons until the desired temperature is seen on
the display. This temperature will be automatically
maintained anywhere between 62°F (17°C) and 86°F
(30°C). If you want the display to read the actual room
temperature, see “To Operate on Fan Only” section.
The fan speed button is used to select the Fan Speed
in four steps: Auto, Low, Med or High. Each time the
button is pressed, the fan speed mode is shifted.
When the unit is operating in Dry mode, the fan speed
is automatically controlled at Low fan speed.

TO SELECT THE OPERATING MODE:
TO USE THE ENERGY SAVER FEATURE
In this mode, the air conditioner will generally operate in the
form of a dehumidier. However, some degree of cooling will
continue.
Use this function only when cooling is not desired, such as
for room air circulation or to exhaust stale air (on some mod-
els). Remember to open the vent during this function, but
keep it closed during cooling for maximum cooling efciency.
You can choose any fan speed you prefer when Fan Only
mode is selected.
When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it
will automatically select cooling or fan only operation
depending on what temperature you have selected and
the room temperature.
To choose operating mode, press the Mode button.
Each time you press the button, a mode is selected in a
sequence that goes from Auto, Cool, Dry and Fan. The
indicator light beside will illuminate and remain on once the
mode is selected.
